Pushing the Limits: Motion
overview
This public program is an investigation into humanity’s relationship with motion, whether it’s the motion of a powerful force or the motion a person might take to alter that force. Sometimes motion is a slower process, such as person’s journey through life, and the changes that one encounters on that journey.

As a young man, Darrell Petry left his family’s ranch and moved to Houston. But the flash and glamor of city living drained his emotional core, and Darrel realized he wanted to return to his roots, and commit to his family’s rodeo heritage.
He was recently re-elected to the position of SW Director of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association – and he is the first Black man to hold the prestigious position. Identity politics play a role in his life, and Darrell considers himself fortunate to represent cowboys, his family, and his town.
